Kreyer MiniChilly chiller

POA - Please Call 01404 892100

The Kreyer range of refrigeration and heating units are manufactured by internationally renowned Kreyer, a Quantor brand, who have over 40 years of specialist knowledge in wine temperature control at all stages of vinification. The units are designed to meet the rigorous requirements of modern winemaking. They are also ideal for the temperature control of beer, cider, juice, spirits and soft drinks (see Kreyer tab).

The MiniChilly is a compact cooling unit, made of stainless steel, and an ideal solution for nano scale scale drink producers who only need cooling for their applications.

Available in 3 sizes with cooling capacities of 0,5 to 1,7 kW (0,67 to 2,21 HP)

At 0°C (32°F) water temperature an ice-bank will be built around the tubes which provides an additional, stored cooling capacity

Able to cool water down to -6°C using glycol.

When used for flash-cooling, it boosts the capacity of the unit, giving a constant cooling temperature over a longer time period

An additional stainless steel coil for direct cooling of liquids can be integrated as an option, even afterwards

Whether you require an individual unit or complete temperature control system with ringmains and Speidel tanks, we offer the complete package including CAD modelling where required. See Kreyer tab below.

Please call us on 01404 892100 to discuss your temperature control requirements.

Kreyer - 40 Years of Specialist Knowledge: The internationally renowned brand Kreyer is founded on 40 years of specialist knowledge in wine temperature control at all stages of vinification. The Kreyer range is designed to meet the rigorous requirements of modern winemaking. It includes equipment for refrigeration and temperature control at all stages of winemaking, either at tank level, room level or through direct cooling or heating. The Kreyer brand is one of the WTG-Quantor brands.

A Proven Reputation: Kreyer cooling and temperature control equipment has a well-earned, proven reputation in wineries throughout the world. Kreyer have developed innovative comprehensive and computerised systems for temperature regulation, CO2 monitoring, micro/macro oxidisation, and room temperature control. Heat-exchangers and room acclimatisation units complement their range.

Company Development: The Kreyer brand was founded in southern France. Company expansion led to the development of larger production facilities and to sales offices being set up in other European countries and the USA. In 1998 the company changed ownership and was incorporated into Wine Technology GmbH (WTG) an internationally renowned specialist in wine cooling, based in Germany in the heart of the Mosel winegrowing region. The company name has since been changed to WTG-Quantor GmbH. WTG-Quantor is now represented in all major wine-growing countries worldwide, incorporating over 40 countries, including Chile, South Africa and Australia.

Kreyer temperature control equipment is widely are used for wine, beer, cider, spirits, mead and soft drink applications.

For wine

Temperature control can be a real asset to wineries in terms of optimising the consistency, the qualities, and the aromas characteristic of English and Welsh wines. Temperature can be controlled at product tank level; centrally via terminal or remotely; or via air conditioning for storage areas. These key temperature control functions can be met with Kreyer temperature control equipment:

Cold settling of must and juices

Fermentation control, including control by CO2 monitoring

Cold stabilisation of wines

Malolactic fermentation control (with heating option standard on most units)

Long term control of product storage temperature

Product chilling prior to carbonation

For beer

Brewers are looking to temperature control as a way of ensuring quality and consistency of their product. Temperature can be controlled at the room level, tank level, or product can be directly cooled or heated. This can ensure that wort is cooled at the rate you want, fermentation occurs at the rate that you want, and that your beer is stored in the conditions you want. Controlling temperature can also help your product retain some of the delicate flavours which can be easily lost. Chilling is also essential where beer is to be carbonated. These key temperature control functions can be met:

Rapid cooling of wort

Fermentation control, including control by CO2 monitoring

Long term control of product storage temperature

Product chilling prior to (and for effective) carbonation

For cider

Cider makers can use temperature control to optimise the consistency and quality of their product and chill it prior to carbonation.
Temperature can be controlled at product tank level; centrally via terminal or remotely; or via air conditioning for storage areas. These functions can be met with Kreyer temperature control equipment:

Fermentation control

Long term control of product storage temperature

Product chilling prior to (and for effective) carbonation

For Juice & soft drink production: These units can be used to chill the product prior to (and for effective) carbonation.
